Abstract
- Soft tissue ulceration resulting from chronic venous insufficiency is a common condition that requires standardised long-term therapy, which has been thoroughly established. We report a patient with a five-year history of persistent venous stasis ulcers despite treatment consistent with traditional wound care. Resolution of the ulcers began only upon deviation from conventional therapy. This report considers non-standard treatments in patients with venous ulcers that do not progress. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
